rear diff pinion seal leak

Post by krzysmac »

G'day

I've noteiced that the rear diff seal leaks from behind the tailshaft flange. Mostly when workin hard. I had a little vibration on driveline. I install axle castor shims and vibration were gone. I moved axle backwards for about 17mm, installed new springs and anti wrap bar, and I have a lot of vibratons on driveline. I though that my tailshaft is to short now, due to castor angle shims and new springs. I installed spacer but it still vibrates.t I can't be the angle (it's double cardon one) and it's not too short. I've noticed that there is a play on the flange (up and down and sideways). In that case it might be the bearing. I've heard somewhere that it is easy to stuff up things with the diffs.

What do you think? Do I have to rebuild diff or it's just bearings, Is it hard to do it (apart from undoing that big flange nut) or should I have it done by diffs specialist and if so any ideas how much could it cost? Do you know any resonable diff specialist in Sydney?

cheers
Chris
